MONTEPULCIANO D’ABRUZZO DOC

The grapes that make this wine are harvested in Abruzzo, a typical wine region in central Italy. They are picked both by hand and mechanically. They are destemmed, softly crushed, then fermented for 12 days at 25-26°C. The wine is kept in contact with the skins for 8 to 15 days. Malolactic fermentation happens thanks to a selected bacteria inoculation. The wine is then fined for up to 6 months in stainless steel tanks.
